Each year I've shown my English students who are studying about female genital mutilation here at a seminary in Ethiopia, the segment about Edna Adan's Maternity Hospital in Somaliland, which borders Ethiopia on the east. The students understand immediately the impact FGM has had on these women. Praise God for Edna's courageous work to enlighten them and save them and their babies!

When I first saw this documentary I couldn't help but cry, this is amazing, everyone on Earth needs to watch this, If you haven't read the book, then this is a great option to watch. These women will move you so much that you will want to go to Cambodia and help save these girls yourself.
